Who we are
Real People • Real Life
We believe that Jesus calls real people to real life. Real people face life without pretence, recognizing its complexity, alert to its challenge. Real people do not settle for a life of ease, drifting with the cultural current. In our services, and in doing life together, Lifepoint pursues something better.
We believe in real worship
At Lifepoint we know that God is Three-in-One – and that we are many. We match our diversity of colour, conviction and life circumstance with diversity in style. Communities worship with liturgy and silence; prayer gatherings are vibrant with song and loud voices. What we share is a creative spirit, and an urgency in worship: to give to Jesus His place as Lord among us, and to give ourselves, in every dimension of life, creatively and without reserve, to Him.
We believe in real community
At Lifepoint we’ve discovered that real life is something you do with others. Some of us choose to live in residential communities, sharing a common life, modelling simplicity and truthfulness in their relationships. Others meet in homes or in the Lifepoint building, whether as ethnic groups, groups for young mums, or in “life groups” around the city. What all these share is a thirst for real life, sharing joys and sorrows openly, offering real help to one another, depending together on the grace and power of Jesus Christ.
We believe in real witness
At Lifepoint we are convinced that God has sent us into the world to be a witness for Him. For most of us the world is local: Wellington, our workplaces, our places of education, our homes. For some the world is the urban poor, in our city and beyond. For others the world is overseas, in mission to far-flung places. Together we puzzle over how to live as witnesses; we pray for each other and for the nations; and we seek the renewing power of the Holy Spirit.

Sunday School / Children and Youth Activities
Under 12s:
Lifepoint kids are real kids. They make a lot of noise, they like to have fun, and they’re willing—with a bit of skilled help—to learn about Jesus. And that’s our heart for them: that they know, from the youngest to the oldest, the love that Jesus has for them, and the call that’s on their lives. Our kids programmes kick off part way through the morning service, for youngsters all the way through to intermediate age. For the super young, we have a crèche. Sarah will steer you to the right room.
Kids usually head out around 10:20, and return at the end of the service, around 11:40. Sometimes they stay in for an ‘all-age’ service; we’ve learned from experience that something special happens when we’re all together. And of course, no one’s out the back when there’s a baptism.

Under 18s:
Lifepoint teens are real teens, inclined to chill and apt to go crazy. They’re also up for the journey of faith. Every Sunday night “Impact” meets over a meal and something more, led by a great team. Bible study, games, chillaxing all in the mix. Sarah will find you a lift.
Times vary a bit, but a typical Impact event runs from 6 to 8 every Sunday evening at Lifepoint. Oh – and there’s always nosh. (It’s a youth event, after all!)

Lifepoint Church History
Make me stand out
Father, make of me a crisis man. Bring those I contact to decision. Let me not be a milepost on a single road; make me a fork, that men must turn one way or another on facing Christ in me.
